Wayward Pines - Season 1, Ep 1 is available on demand on Fox. Also in HD.
It doesnt start until the 14th of May and was surprised to see it on there.

H'mmm. I find it rather difficult to get excited over 'Audio English DD'. Sounds like a radio channel.

Not a chance of Sky 3D channel coming soon as "Another nail in the coffin for 3D, as Sky announces it will be removing the Sky 3D channel and putting all its 3D content on to the On Demand service".

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015)
I think we all said on here a few years back that sky 3d wouldn't last as a stand alone channel. Let us all pat ourselves on the back for a job well done...

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015)
Yes, but these are NOT NEW CHANNELS are they, just a rebrand or HD.
liberty global or VM have got to give the customer NEW channels that are out there, and l am not just talking about SA.
It was funny as l was approached by a VM sales rep in our local supermarket. I said that l wasn't happy at the choice that Sky have, and VM.
I mentioned SA, he said that a contract is due between Sky and VM along with other channels coming soon.
Why does VM wait for a contract to be renewed, before a new channel can be announced.
When l was in USA a couple of years ago, there was a brilliant golden old channel that showed some brilliant American shows, that we have had over here.
We have GOLD, but we should have channels like that

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015)
Its still a new channel on the VM platform.
Contracts are there with Sky in particular as there are agreements and a lot of complications now, due to On Demand and streaming among other things.
Its not just a simple case of here, have this channel.
